SkinPen Microneedling

---

  What is SkinPen?

SkinPen®  is the first microneedling device cleared by the FDA. When you schedule a microneedling session at Pristine Med Spa you are choosing a safe, chemical-free, and effective treatment to:

• Reduce hyperpigmentation and signs of sun damage
• Even out skin tone
• Minimize acne scars
• Reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles
• Minimize the appearance of large pores
• Produce firmer, smoother, more supple skin

This procedure is effective for all types and shades of skin, with little to no downtime or discomfort.

  How microneedling works

SkinPen creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate the body's natural wound-healing process, while minimizing cellular damage. 

  What should I expect post-procedure?

The skin will appear slightly pink to red immediately after, similar to a mild sunburn. The most common treatment responses are dryness, tightness, redness, peeling and tenderness. These conditions resolve over time with no other complications.

 *Microneedling may also be combined with PRP 

 What is PRP?

Our blood contains PRP, a golden substance which contains growth factors that help the cells regenerate and stimulate collagen and elastin growth. By drawing a small amount of your own blood and separating the PRP from it we can re-inject or microneedle it into the face, further promoting healing and leaving you looking younger and more refreshed. 

  PRP for Hair loss: Doctors have injected PRP into the scalp to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss. According to research PRP injections are effective in treating androgenic alopecia, which is also known as male pattern baldness.
